Problems solved by technology

[0007] Since both ends of the casing are sealed with metal plates, the light emitted to the blocked part of the outer tube is blocked by the metal plates, so there is a problem of luminous flux drop
[0008] Moreover, since the outer tube is connected to the tongue piece provided on the metal plate on the side of the closed part of the outer tube, when the light-emitting tube thermally expands or contracts after the light is turned on or off, the metal plate will shrink due to the thermal expansion or contraction of the light-emitting tube. Moving in unison, there will be a problem of abnormal sound caused by the tongue rubbing against the inner surface of the outer tube

Abstract

A metal vapor discharge lamp including an outer tube having a closed portion at a first end and a base at a second end; a discharge tube inside of which an electrode is provided, located in the outer tube; and a sleeve enveloping the discharge tube and located in the outer tube, wherein the sleeve includes an open portion on the closed portion side of the outer tube; the closed portion side of the outer tube is provided with a support for supporting an end of the closed portion side of the sleeve; the support comprises a column portion having a narrow plate shape or a narrow stick shape separated from the open portion of the closed portion side of the sleeve, and a sleeve holding portion provided at an end of the column portion and is in contact with the sleeve; and the support is connected to a feeding body connected to the electrode and led from the discharge tube toward the side of the closed portion, and the support also is connected to an electric power supply wire extending toward the side of the base. Thereby, it is possible to provide a high efficiency and long lifetime metal vapor discharge lamp capable of suppressing abnormal noises after the lamp is turned on or off with the sleeve supported firmly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to metal vapor discharge lamps. Background technique [0002] Existing metal vapor discharge lamps, for example, metal halide lamps, in order to prevent damage to the outer tube caused by the rupture of the luminous tube at the end of life, it is proposed to surround the luminous tube with a glass cylindrical sleeve (hereinafter referred to as the sleeve) and A device in which the two ends of the casing are sealed with metal plates (JP-A-2-230655). [0003] The metal plate is provided with tongues respectively connected with the outer tube and the sleeve, so that the tongues are in contact with the inner surface of the outer tube, thereby keeping the sleeve at a specified position in the outer tube. [0004] Recently, such conventional metal halide lamps use light-transmitting ceramic arc tubes that are excellent in heat resistance and halogen resistance. The conventional metal halide lamp using the li...
